Installation of the “Antarctica World Passport Office” by Lucy + Jorge Orta, delivering more than 1000 passports.

An exhibition divided into three universes:

– “Redirection” takes up the legend of expeditions to the poles to illustrate the impact of global warming.

– “Energy in transit” offers an offbeat look at both the observation and the solutions initiated by a fossil fuel-free society.

– “Recommended Circuit” is dedicated to the circular economy and offers complete illustrations of a process of zero waste creation thanks to a respectful management of the planet’s resources.

“Post-Carbon” presents a variety of artistic expressions, ranging from participatory installations to documentary video to sculpture, photography and opera.

Inauguration on January 12, 2015, in the presence of Emmanuel Macron, Minister of the Economy, Philippe Wahl, CEO of La Poste Group, Georges Lefebvre, General Manager of La Poste Group, and many other artists.

This exhibition observes the main principles of eco-design: the reuse of materials for scenography (with Co-Recycling); the choice of local solutions to avoid transport; the use of certified recycled papers for editions.

An exhibition curated in collaboration with Vanessa Vancutsem.
